Green q Co. report on cotton futures says
1t was local market for cotton contracts,
and rather narrow one at that, with nothing
special to note, except a little firmer tone on
| prices There seemed to be desire in some
quarters to cover on the next crop especially
| September, and after small break at the open
ing, rates were advanced boo points from the
lowest, but the gain was not fully supported,
and the close rather slack. No Information OF
importance came from the crop, and Europe
was on the whole rather slack August was
found fair sale, including an increased move for
export, the latter thought to be under quota

CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE grain crowds gener-
ally were so tame on Change to-day that oper-
ators would have taken no great chances if they
had dipped in deep on either side and then de-
parted from the scene entirely. The session
was notable chiefly for the very limited range
| in prices The signal service charts showed
good rainfall in Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas,
but the days went by last week when prices
| fuctuated on reports of sunshine and dampaess.
In wheat a feeling of languor prevailed early in
the session. with prices averaging slightly lower
| than Yesterday, but later the market recovered
somewhat and closed shade better than yester-
day. The dullness was attributed mainly to fair
speculative offerings on Eastern account, and
also TO some selling reports OF q prosI ect that
the movement in the rthwest will Sooa show
an increase. The seaboard markets were re
ported lower. especially Baltimore and neigh
boring winter wheat markets were also weaker.
The above influences caused an easier opening
and then the market sold off about NC, but re-
ceipts were somewhat smaller, and this, with
some export demand here for spring as well as
winter wheat, had tendency TO strengthen the
feeling some and prices gradually recovered,
advancing sc and closing about NC better than
yesterday. Corn ruled quiet almost throughout
the day. The predictions by some yesterday
that corn had surely reached bottom for the
present were proven false this morning at the
very opening. Receipts were liberal, shipments
light and rains plentiful, if they go for anything
now. Holders did not seem to attempt TO lift
prices with so many weights attached, and the
market opened weak and lower and became at
times lifeless The market continued easy
fiuctuating within ISD14c range until near the
close, when. under an improved demand, prin-
cipaliy from shorts, there was an advance of Ac.
which was maintained steadily and prices left
off Mds9c higher than yesterday. weaker
feeling pervaded the entire market for oats.
Cash oats were about NC lower there being a
